This digital electronics text focuses on "how to" design, build, operate and adapt data acquisition systems. The material begins with basic logic gates and ends with a 40 KHz voltage measurer. The approach aims to cover a minimal number of topics in detail. The data acquisition circuits described communicate with a host computer...

Automatic control is becoming more and more important in this age of automation. In manufacturing processes it ensures that certain parameters, such as temperature, pressure, speed cc voltage, take up specific constant values recognized as the optimum. or are maintained in a particular relationship to other variables. In other words, the duty...
